Gray Matter Volume Five: Exploring Contemporary Halachic Challenges

The Gray Matter Halacha series has emerged as a premier source for in-depth Halachic discussion. Rabbi Chaim Jachter selects topics of relevance and interest to contemporary Jews and, in his characteristically clear and readable style, comprehensively surveys the issues and the varying views of contemporary scholars. Instead of simply presenting the rules, Rabbi Jachter fully explains the sources of the Halacha from the Gemara, to the Rishonim and Acharonim and then to current rabbinic authorities. Rabbi Jachter has created a new style of Halachic literature which not only tells you what to do but allows readers to understand how and why great rabbis arrive at their conclusions, including a wide range of Halachic authorities. A stunningly wide-range of topics are addressed in this volume, including: the bracha on granola, the Halachic Date Line, Beit Din basics, programming a self-driving car to kill one to save many, and performing a get procedure via Zoom.
